Rain

Tenerife ("where sunny skies and warm weather reign supreme") is in the middle of its wettest winter in 20 years. It has rained on-and-off for 3 whole days, but this evening the rain set in for real, and it hasn't stopped raining for hours. All the bone dry stream beds are running furiously, and the outside restaurants and cafes are abandoned. Thousands of holiday makers from northern Europe are having a miserable time; tomorrow we leave the Africa Mercy for a week at John's house in Costa Silencio, for a real holiday, so we hope it will dry up overnight!
